Drosophila melanogaster, species is commonly known as the common fruit fly or vinegar fly. One of the best model organism in genetics and radiobiology because:

§ Well studied example,

gene structure known

§

Has common principal DNA structure with humans

§

Short life cycle (~10 days)

§

Permits the study of heritable gene mutation

§ Low cost

Res ul t s

§ 2 control lines and 7 mutants (γ-irradiated) were

examined

§ 8 exones and 3 intrones of vestigial gene were

analyzed

§ 1 insertion was detected in 3d introne of 1 vestigial

gene mutant

§ More than 60 polymerase chain reactions were carried

Concl us i ons

§ Such a little quantity of PCR-detected deletions could

be caused by specific action of γ-rays. Because the type of radiation mentioned above induce point damage (as a rule) that cannot be detected by PCR

§ Mutant phenotype can be caused by changes in exones

and intrones of the gene

Concl us i ons

Gamma-rays induce point damage (as a rule) that cannot be detected by PCR Only 1 PCR-detected deletion was observed. It can be caused by high-dense irradiation of the mutant

G ener al Concl us i ons

§ We have studied the molecular alterations induced

by ionizing radiation at 2 Drosophila genes with different sizes, structure and position on the chromosomes.

§ Two different genes-targets react in the same way

  • n the action of radiation. It is suggested that

different position of 2 genes on the chromosome and difference in sizes don’t influence on their radiomutability.

§ Mutations can be caused by changes in intrones and

exones
